He was always very keen to spread his knowledge of Indian Classical Music in his homeland Bangladesh. To create and establish a platform for classical musical practice and appreciation, he worked really hard. In 1980 he established “Sur Rang Academy of Classical Music” all by himself. The academy was the first of its kind in Bangladesh, solely devoted to Indian Classical Music.

Famous quotes containing the words singing and/or career:
“Meanwhile, the men, with vestiges of pomp,
Race memories of king and caravan,
High-priests, an ostrich, and a juju-man,
Go singing through the footpaths of the swamp.”
—Jean Toomer (1894–1967)
“I seemed intent on making it as difficult for myself as possible to pursue my “male” career goal. I not only procrastinated endlessly, submitting my medical school application at the very last minute, but continued to crave a conventional female role even as I moved ahead with my “male” pursuits.”
—Margaret S. Mahler (1897–1985)
